Woah... a real "marquee" matchup there.

Now watch, it will be a 2-1 game. LOL

Right, into the 7th, then as both starters depart, it turns into a slugfest, 10-8.

 

[Howie115]

LOL ... Guess not. 5-2 Tigers after two innings.

"They are what we thought they were."

 

[Howie115]

Leonys with the grand slam. Turn out the lights, this one is over.

 

[Howie115]

Zimmermann is still a horseshit pitcher.

Could the O's have the worst pitching staff in the American League?

 

[Howie115]

O's were the second-worst staff in the AL last year (4.97 ERA). Doesn't look like they've improved.

 

[Howie115]

Tigers 1-2-3 hitters were 10-14 today with 2 HR and 7 RBI.

Candelario was on base 5 times today, and homered in all 3 games of the series.

 

[Howie115]

Yikes, looks like we might need all 13 runs to win. Better start warming up the "good" pitchers, Ron.

Tigers have a stretch here against some teams that are as bad as they are. After KC, they play a surprising Pittsburgh but then it is back to games against Balt, Tampa, KC, and Texas. With a little luck, they could keep themselves close to .500 before they hit Seattle and Cleveland.

Tigers sweep. Royals next....time to get to 500

Candelario was on base 5 times today, and homered in all 3 games of the series.

My bad. I was listening to Rod Allen, who said Candelario had homered 3 games in a row. It is actually 3 of the last 4.

 

[Zwalt]

Zimmermann is still a horseshit pitcher.

He's a gas can looking for a fire...I'm wondering if he doesn't end up in the bullpen sooner than later.

JaCoby Jones!!!! My guy.

 

[Howie115]

Another walk-off winner this week. JaCoby Jones, bottom of the 10th!!!

 

[Howie115]

Doubleheader today... sure didn't want this game to drag on too many innings.

 

[Iffster]

What the he// is going on? Machado and Jones winning games. Jimenez winning games and not giving up runs? Spooky.

 

[Howie115]

Hammel did his team a solid by pitching 9 innings. Advantage KC in the nightcap. Their bullpen threw to a total of 2 batters.
